牛弹琴 一场新的战争，已是一触即发。 种种迹象表明，美国和以色列，很快就会对伊朗发动攻击。事实上，按照媒体的披露，1月11日，美国 对伊朗的所有作战方案，"已经摆放到特朗普面前"。 美国又要动手，其背后的逻辑与诱因，其实也很简单。 1，现在是伊朗最虚弱的时刻。 按照新华社的报道，伊朗最近的一系列骚乱，在德黑兰和其他城市，造成"大量人员"死亡，伊朗正处于 几十年来最严重的危机中。 此时对伊朗进行打击，很可能是对伊朗政权的致命一击。国际政治的残酷法则之一，便是强者总能嗅到 并利用弱者最虚弱的瞬间。 2，以色列和特朗普都抵不住诱惑。 现在的伊朗，是以色列和美国不共戴天的敌人，卡特、里根等美国总统，都在伊朗问题上栽过大跟头。 想象一下，如果伊朗变天，将彻底改写中东格局，对美国和以色列是空前地缘利好，以色列能抵制住诱 惑？能完成里根等历届总统无法完成的任务，特朗普能抵制住诱惑？ 3，这还有一个政治承诺的问题。 特朗普多次鼓动伊朗人造反，公开警告伊朗政府：如果开枪镇压，美国也开枪，"我们枪已经上膛，准 备出发。" 他还表态："伊朗正在追求自由，也许是前所未有的。美国准备好提供帮助！！！" 美国国务院则警告称："不要与特朗 ...

各位朋友，大家好！今天是2026年1月4日，也是这一年中的第一个工作日。我在这里祝愿世界各地的朋友们，不 论你们身处何方，都能身体健康，心想事成，马到成功！然而，正如古话所说，树欲静而风不止，就在这个元旦 假期，国际局势发生了剧变。伊朗爆发了动荡，而更令人震惊的是，昨天（1月3日），我们得知了一个突如其来 的消息：委内瑞拉总统马杜罗和他的妻子竟然在睡梦中被美国特种部队带走，并且已经被押送到纽约。据悉，特 朗普和美国高层官员已经开始在纽约对马杜罗展开审问。 首先，我们来看事件的性质。尽管特朗普及其团队一再宣称马杜罗是犯罪分子，并涉嫌毒品走私，但我个人认为 事情并没有他们所说的那么简单。首先，关于马杜罗的罪行，相关证据并不充足；其次，类似的情况在国际上并 不罕见。从最宽泛的角度看，虽然从道德上讲，美国的做法或许可以理解，但从国际法的角度来看，这无疑是对 一个国家主权的公然侵犯。需要强调的是，这是我最宽容的表述。如果这种做法成为先例，后果将是极其严重 的。大家应该记得，1989年美军入侵了巴拿马，之后美国又两次攻击伊拉克。某种程度上，1991年和2003年的美 伊战争正是从美军入侵巴拿马这一行为中延续而来的。因此， ...
